A hospital in the UK is introducing a communication system that is integrated into the ID badges of employees. The entire system is hands-free and voice activated. Think of it as a walkie-talkie integrated into the ID badge. It functions with a VoIP network over a Wi-Fi connection throughout the hospital. Simply say the person's name or department and you will be connected with them. I bet this might cause some problems with inter-office hospital politics. Sure, you may have given the new intern in radiology crabs, but now they know that it was you. That's what you get for bragging about having crabs...
